Question

Transcribed Image Text:•35 Three children, each of weight 356 N,
make a log raft by lashing together logs of
diameter 0.30 m and length 1.80 m. How
many logs will be needed to keep them
afloat in fresh water? Take the den-

An 8.60- kg block of wood (density = 770 kg/m³) is fixed to the top of the spring and compresses it. Then the pool is filled with water, completely covering the block. The spring is now observed to be stretched twice as much as it had been compressed. Determine the percentage of the block's total volume that is hollow. Ignore any air in the hollow space. % 20 C $ 27 R 888 V % 5 T G tv MacBook Air 6: B P H & F7 N 8 M ( 9 AO K O P zoom CIA by m EA 04 M wies or the puffer delete 21 A Aarrow_forward
